VIB-KU Leuven Center for Brain & Disease Research Flanders Institute for Biotechnology

Responsible
The research at the VIB-KU Leuven Center for Brain & Disease Research (CBD) aims to unravel the basic biological mechanisms of neurobiology and brain disease. CBD researchers pursue these novel findings to solve major medical problems, such as different types of dementia and ALS.

Bio-Imaging lab University of Antwerp

Responsible
The core business of the bio-Imaging lab is high resolution in vivo neuro imaging. Using imaging methods we are focusing on early detection and underlying mechanisms of neurodegeneration using mice and rat models for different neurodegenerative pathologies such as Parkinson-, Huntington- and Alzheimer's disease. Secondly the attention goes to neuronal plasticity including adult neurogenesis and stem cell research in which we focus on in-vivo ...

Laboratory for Parkinson Research KU Leuven

Responsible

The Laboratory for Parkinson Research investigates the molecular basis of Parkinson’s disease in order to find new targets for disease-modifying therapy. They study the cellular functions of proteins that have been genetically linked to Parkinson’s disease. So far they have focused mainly on the function of the Parkin protein. Loss of function mutations in the gene for Parkin are the main cause of recessive Parkinson’s disease. Parkin plays a ...
